CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Paul Magne Haakonsen Yes, I will admit it, I am a sucker for Asian movies, be it action, horror, dramas or comedy. And South Korea really do put out a lot of amazing movies in every genre, and "Sad Movie" (aka "Saedeu mubi") is one of those amazing movies.At first I was a bit puzzled about the title of the movie. And my confusion was heightened as the first two-thirds of the movie were romantic comedy, and as far from sad as it could be. So I was wondering if director Jong-Kwan Kwon was just using "Sad Movie" as a sarcastic title for the movie.But then as the last third of the movie started, everything just fell into place, and boy shall I say that the movie more than lived up to its title. And it is somewhat of a tear jerker.The story follows several couples in their ups and downs in their relationships. And the story of the sick mother and the story with the artist and girl performing in a large costume really hit home with me. Those two stories went straight to my heart.The cast in "Sad Movie" was amazing, a lot of really good talents on the cast ensemble. And they did really good jobs portraying their individual roles and characters under the skillful direction of Jong-Kwan Kwon."Sad Movie" is truly a beautiful and fantastic movie that you should take the time to watch regardless of loving South Korean cinema or not. This is a movie that takes you through a lot of various emotions from joy and laughter to sadness and tears.I upped my rating from eight to nine stars out of ten because of the magnificent ending that director Jong-Kwan Kwon managed to put on the screen. This is truly what South Korean cinema is all about.

demonluvv This movie indeed is sad.Being different than other romance where most couples do end up together, this one is more of a heart touching realistic movie.Being realistic, this show tells of how superficial love can be. It also shows how fragile a human relationship is. Lets face the fact that human are in fact attracted to looks and wealth. This is life, where not all relationship goes the way fairy tales or make believe romances do.The actors and actresses in this movie are indeed very famous. They, with their nearly flawless acting skills, made the movie so believable. Through the characters, many can experience themselves in the characters' shoes which proves their acting to be high skilled.The bits of the story, which is the style of the director,makes this movie more fluent and bearable. Some find one story boring. If the director were to focus on one story at a time, this movie may not be coherent at all or smooth flowing. The fitted in between story from one character to another is rather interesting and stimulating to watch rather than one dull holistic story.Overall, this is a story that reflects the reality of various love.It is touching and indeed it is a SAD MOVIE.

earthworm_jin Like my summary says, the movie reminds me of the ABC series "Six Degrees." Why? because the movie is not just one story but many stories compiled together. Its worth watching I find. I dunno since when or who came up with the idea of creating a movie with several stories going on at the same time, but it works for me. I gave it a 8 out of 10 and not a 10 because I didn't like how it ended. The system won't let me post my comment if its not 10 lines so I'm going to blablablablabla. I tried this and the system still doesn't let me post my comment because there were too many blablas. Want me to talk more about the movie? Rent it and watch it to find out more. This is my first comment so excuse me if its crappy. There, that should do it.

kityujonatha Watching Sad Movie is a emotional rolling coaster journey. The first 2/3 part of the movie is in fact funny and witty. The character building is clever, i should say. Their relationship with their partners is convincing too.The film actually is dealing with the theme of communication. The eight characters in the movie are more or less unable to communicate with their loved one. The honest and a bit stupid fireman, a jobless youngster, a mother and the deaf gal form four separate, yet related plot lines of the movie. The movie is moving along the plot line of how these characters's blocks of communication are being solved.The development is smooth, full of witty moments, and plot lines help each other to maintain a overall light atmosphere of the first 2/3 of the movie.But when the movie runs to the latter 1/3 part. it turns into a sad mood. It will definitely make you cry as i did. Although some twists may seem a bit over-sentimental, but it is still effective.It's like when you are questioning or even complaining it's too sentimental, you are crying indeed. A very funny cinematic experience.Overall, it's one of the best Korean romance movie so far.
